        Macau maybe? I think TR had done some fights there before.

          Fury should win fairly comfortably. Zhang is nowhere near the world beater he's being hyped up as.

          But it would be a decent enough level of fight to make. I'd watch.

          Won't happen though. It's an unnecessary risk for Fury and he doesn't do that.

            Fury is in a situation where, there has been public pressure for him to ether fight Ruiz Junior or Zhang 'I don't think Fury has ever been subjected to this amount of pressure or critique in his fighting career'.

            Fury these past few months has most likely experienced what it is like to be held to a high standard 'Fury for the most part during his career, in my opinion has not be held to a high standard. Not in comparison to fighters like Anthony Joshua, who is still currently held to a higher standard than Fury'.

            So I would expect Fury's next fight, to be one of these fighters. And if that is the case, that is a sold fight for Fury 'Nobody can really criticize the match making' etc.

              Y'all can cry all y'all want but Zhang didn't do enough to win which is why he lost.

                This ain't the Olympics. If you aren't landing more hits than the other guy then you aren't winning. That's why you shouldn't leave it up to the judges in a close fight.

                  Didn't do enough? Most think Zhang did enough, Zhang made flip act odd, with unusual behaviour, and say no mas, not our fault ref didn't stop fight.Hitting Zhang guard all night don't equate to success. Flip probably hits harder than zhang, and if they did land, Zhang wouldve acted as strange as flip did....Zhang chin can't be that good.

                  But credit to flip he still had a bit of energy at end, so Zhang might need more bodywork to slow young pup down. But having the energy of youth don't mean you won the story of the fight!

                  Zhang quite rightly ranked above flip. Zhang had off night, if beating Joyce is anything to go by. Flip needs another big win to show win over Zhang weren't a one off fluke.

                      Don't believe Zhang beats Fury. But I hope he beats the dog **** out of Gypsy Weirdo. Tired of the bipolar cokehead and his antics.
